Every organ of the body (starting from skin to the brain) is affected by smoking. And almost 90% of the organs are affected by liquor.
All the Multinational Laboratories have their "Complete Health Check up Packages" the cost starting from Rs 1000 and going up to Rs 10,000.
I suggest you choose any package after discussion with the Laboratory . You may omit those which cover Heavy metal poisoning.

It's a good thought to get tested. Alcohol and smoking affect many areas. It's better to connect personally. These are a few tests which can be done to know the condition
1. Cbc
2. Liver function tests- to know the condition of the liver, as cirrhosis is most commonly associated with drinking
3. Renal function tests- to know the functioning of kidney and nephrons
4. Ecg- to know the condition of his heart
5. Chest x ray- to know the condition of his lungs, as smoking can cause various respiratory conditions
6. Total lipid profile
7. Vit B12, vit D, serum calcium
If possible get a complete health package done in a nearby hospital

It is very thoughtful of you to plan a preventive checkup for your husband. Long-term smoking, alcohol use, and gutka can indeed affect multiple organs including lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, and even oral health. The good news is that many changes can be detected early if we screen properly, and lifestyle changes can prevent further damage.
Next Steps
Instead of random tests, it is better to go for a structured health check package that focuses on the right areas. I would recommend a doctor-guided selection of tests, because the choice depends on age, lifestyle, and family history. If you share a bit more detail with me in consultation, I can help prepare the exact list of blood tests and scans most relevant for him, so nothing important is missed.
Health Tips
Encourage him to start reducing smoking, alcohol, and gutka, as stopping early makes a big difference. Along with tests, regular follow-ups are equally important. Please don’t rely on self-deciding a test panel -let a doctor design it for him to avoid both under-testing and unnecessary over-testing.

You're doing something truly important by taking action early — even when there are no symptoms. It shows how much you care. These habits can cause silent damage over time, and your concern today can protect your husband's health tomorrow. You're doing the right thing.
Here are few investigations, which you can able to refer
1. Blood pressure
2. Complete blood count (CBC) - To detect anemia, infection etc. Smoking & alcohol may affect blood counts.
3. Liver function tests (LFTs) — e.g. AST, ALT, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, albumin To see liver cell damage; detect possible alcohol‑related liver injury.
4. Kidney function tests — e.g. serum creatinine, BUN/urea, eGFR To detect reduced kidney filtering function.
5. Electrolytes — e.g. sodium, potassium If kidney or liver function compromised or if using alcohol.
6. Lipid profile — total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, VLDL etc. Smoking, alcohol both raise bad lipids and lower good ones. Useful for heart disease risk.
7. Fasting blood sugar / HbA1c To catch risk of diabetes (which further complicates other risks).
8. Tests for pancreatic function (if needed) — e.g. amylase/lipase Habitual alcohol can inflame pancreas. If any symptoms.
9. Chest imaging / Lung function tests — e.g. chest X‑ray, spirometry To detect early lung damage like COPD; chest X‑ray if suspicion of lung disease.
10. Electrocardiogram (ECG) & possibly Echocardiogram
11. Ultrasound abdomen - To check liver size, fatty liver, gallbladder, possibly pancreas, kidneys.
12. Tests for nutritional status — e.g. Vitamin B12, folate, iron studies
